35 YEARS Later - Mega R-Type on Sega Genesis & Mega Drive

[@Zobbster]

You could easily fool me that this is an official title that released back in the '90s. The devs did a great job, they certainly made Mike happy!

[@RetroGamerBoy]

It's sooooooo good. I love it.

1:08 Sonic and Golden Axe were first released on the Mega Drive, though! Not the other way around.

[@RetroGamerBoy]

Yup but as a kid I had the Master System versions first, so as a kid I was expecting to see it on the MD when I moved over.

[@lukesablade]

This looks great, your custom case, cart, manual and poster also look incredible.

[@RetroGamerBoy]

It's a great game, they have done an amazing job.

[@malcolmar]

This is OUTSTANDING! R-Type for the Master System was my go to game back in the day and I always loved the sound track and now to have this. Wow! The passion and the talent in the Mega Drive / Genesis community is just off the charts and that goes for your amazing physical cart and case for the demo. Really top tier stuff. With all that said, I am simply amazed at what is being made for my beloved system. Thanks for this look. I am with you on the excitement for this 100%!

[@RetroGamerBoy]

I'm glad there are so many people out there that love this console. I think it's the reason why it has a healthy indie community.

[@malcolmar]

@@RetroGamerBoy Agreed!

[@therealbad-TCL]

I tested this demo and I'm impressed by the sounds and music, graphically it's really nice to see. What a joy to see enthusiasts doing such things, it's fantastic.

[@RetroGamerBoy]

I know. The passion for this console is amazing.

[@eyzmaster]

This looks FANTASTIC! They did so good on the music, the sprits and screen transitions!! I love it, I hope they can make the entire thing! ...and WOW!!!! YOU EVEN DID A POSTER!!! FREAKIN EPIC!!!

[@theroboz]

Fantastic video, it was great to see your excitement and surprise. Even more fantastic is the work you did on the cart. Hopefully we can keep in touch for something similar when the game is complete

[@RetroGamerBoy]

That would be amazing. The work here is truly outstanding.

[@ericg.7435]

Thank you for another great Pre-/Review Mike. The custom edition you made is stunning! I want a copy of it now :D hahahaha - Would love to see a final physical release. R-Type FTW!!

[@josefrancocampos9718]

Man, I just love your enthusiasm for everything Megadrive. As a kid, it was the console I wanted to have but never could, and then I forgot about it... until one month ago, when I found a full Tower of Power on sale at my local second-hand shop. Now my Sega journey has begun and I am having a lot of fun thanks to guys like you. Thank you Mike, keep up the good work 😁

[@RetroGamerBoy]

You found one out in the wild!! That's amazing. Great find.

[@josefrancocampos9718]

Amazing that we're still getting games on the console. Looks great!

[@RetroGamerBoy]

It f'ing great Ron

[@arturwittensoeltner8729]

R-Type was also one of my absolute favourites. I played that game so much, I do think I could have easily purchased the whole arcade cabinet for the regular pricing back then.

[@RetroGamerBoy]

[@hammerheadms]

Wow, they did such a good job with this! The colors pop so much it almost looks like the PC Engine version. I gotta have this one.

[@RetroGamerBoy]

I know it's amazing. How they have done some of this is beyond me.

[@shiningphantasy1393]

This looks top-shelf for sure; I tried the beta out and the final product I'd expect to be in the conversation for being one of the overall highest quality shmups on Mega Drive, or at least in the top 20 since there are so many of them. R-Type is far from my favorite game in the genre but I still appreciate the passion put into this. The extras are so nice to just distinguish this from the many versions on other consoles, and the respawn option I believe is probably an exclusive feature. Like you said it could work both ways due to the power-up issue and not having smart bombs to stay alive until you can work your way back like in most vertical shmups. On the other hand it could be handy if you have almost defeated a boss and just need that last bit of offense to get to the next stage.

[@RetroGamerBoy]

Very true, it's great that the guys making this took the time to think about extra elements for this port.

[@dexterkoeman6050]

OMG, the amount of coins I spent with this game in the arcades... Good old times.

[@RetroGamerBoy]

It's was so cool.

[@dexterkoeman6050]

That's really cool Mike. I love all the artwork and detail you put into it and it looks like they did an amazing job on the game. It sounds great, looks great and I look forward to seeing their finished product.

[@RetroGamerBoy]

I'm very excited for this.

[@TheRestartPoint]

I have loads of versions of this game, loved it since it came out and was always sad it didnt come out on Mega Drive (though the PC Engine version is brilliant), but the big USP of this one is the conversion and 16-bit upgrade of the Master System "secret" stage. That and all the extra options and features make this totally KILLER !!! very happy about it and certainly interested in a physical edition! Although i dont suppose it will be quite as awesome as your home made packaging, amazing job Mike! Somebody started converting Gradius 2 a while ago, sadly that seems to have been abandoned, i hope this project completes.

[@RetroGamerBoy]

I'd love to see Gradius 2 come to the system.

[@GreyMatterShades]

The SMS was my first home console as a kid, and R-Type was by far the game I played the most on it. So much nostalgia. This new version for the Genesis looks fantastic. Kudos to the devs for what they've done so far. Can't wait to see how the rest of the project pans out.

[@RetroGamerBoy]

It's a super small team as well.

[@Frogdoddofficial]

That's really cool. We played r type a lot on the turbo. I love that intro song as you burst onto the screen on level one.

[@RetroGamerBoy]

It's so iconic that tune.

[@rodneyabrett]

Nice. This may end up dethroning R-Type Complete for the PC Engine CD as my favorite home port of this classic. It looks beautiful!

[@RetroGamerBoy]

That would be a great achievement.

[@Zobbster]

Don't know if you're aware Mike, but there's only the left channel audio for your straight to camera bits. I promise I'll be the only one to notice this ;)

[@RetroGamerBoy]

Really I have left and right through my earphones. I am testing out a new mic and a dedicated camera so it's possible I've f'd it.

[@proximacentauri8256]

[@Crystallums]

WoW... is this real? one of my favorite games is back !!! I want it NOW hahaha, finally my dream has come true.

[@RetroGamerBoy]

I'm keen to see this finished and to see how they do with the rest of the game.

[@samfrito]

Excellent! The animation and the sound sure look accurate. R-Type on SMS was a huge lift to me. Irem mostly made NES games during that time, but Oh how i loved that SMS game. The Mega version will be a welcome addition, whether i can get my hands on a full version or just pay for the complete rom from those folks, its going to be an amazing trip. So glad you did this and showed your love by completely making the packaging and poster. You are the wizard! On another note: i just found out Panorama Cotton on Switch last night for $2.99. This is an absolute steal if you are into that game. Great time to still love retro, my ma-an!

[@RetroGamerBoy]

I think they are going to make the ROM free.

That looks amazing - and a great job with your cover art and manual! I loved r-type - especially in the arcade, but also the slightly dodgy Atari ST conversion which was the only way I could play it at home at the time. Hopefully when it's complete they will release a physical copy with a cover and manual? If not, I may be begging you for a print! 😁

[@PONTOCRITICO]

The Master System version was already extremely competent for an 8-bit port, with few disparities in graphic effects for the arcade. It's unbelievable what they've done there, showing the full power of Sega's 3rd generation console... And I was proud to own both the console and the cartridge. The Mega Drive port is a kind of test run that complements what could still be done to the game using the 16-bit hardware, such as the use of parallax backgrounds. There's practically no difference from the arcade, with very subtle variations in the coloring of the elements. And no doubt the printing of the booklets is very promising, you really are an enthusiast, Mike.

[@RetroGamerBoy]

I love the Master System version, I think it is one of the best arcade ports for a 8bit console.

[@proximacentauri8256]

I don't mind so much for not getting back then an R-Type version for the Megadrive because of the truly amazing Master System port. The SNES version of the R-Type is full of slowdown but i guess its an ok port, but the Third Lightning that the SNES got is an amazing addition to the series. This version (Third Lightning) is the one that i wanted more to see on the Megadrive.

Same here, I love how good this is.

[@ronaldclayton4232]

Never really knew why an R-Type game never made it to the Genesis after the original turned out so good on the Master System,I believe the arcade version of part 2 showed up around the same time as the genesis release and an arcade conversion of part 2 for the Genesis would have made total sense at the time in 1990.The original was released on a few consoles Master System,TG-16,PS1 had a compilation of Part 1 and 2 conveniently named R-Types even the Gameboy saw 2 release(regular and color)just not 2 of the major consoles of the time(NES, SNES)the SNES did have a renamed part 2 at launch and the awesome part three that came along a few years later.

[@thuggeegaming659]

I just tried it, it's awesome!!! Few problems. Shooting the force doesn't shoot it far enough. I usually shoot the force off against the level 1 boss, but it wasn't working properly. It just didn't go across the screen entirely, and kind of slowed down and stopped 3/4 of the way. The re-spawn ability is much appreciated, but despite it saying it has invincibility frames, it doesn't appear to be the case. Everything else is fantastic! The inclusion of the exclusive Master System level was a complete surprise! But a welcome one XD. Once the problems are fixed, this version is even better than the arcade version IMO.

[@theroboz]

Yeah, invincibility is missing at respawn, will be fixed in the next demo update. The force here is reacting to the boss tail so the tail can stop it and hit it a bit back. you have to shoot it around the tail and be positioned a bit back (to make it a bit more strategic). I also tweaked the control a bit so you can play using the beam button only and tap ity to fire repeatedly, so the shot only button is for who prefers autofire. All will be updated soon

[@RetroGamerBoy]

It's a stunning demo and like you said a few niggles that should be easy to fix.

Alas the 8bitdo mini controller is hanging off my car interior mirror, and having my entire collection on my phone + all the arcades I ever dreamed of owning (14 year old me would not comprehend over 1000 games, not conversions, but running as meant too - and downloaded from "thin-air" [wifi] and all for Free!!!) - and using Bluetooth for the sound - thus my new gaming room is literally my car...the pad is great for convenience....today *and I really recommend this pad- I now have/run a 8bitdo snk neogeo cd pad (copy of original but better fir longer wear) - basically with arcade microswitch d-pad .... Again, absolutely awesome!! Although not as convenient due to size and unable to hang on interior car mirror.. . Ok...no need to find that comment on that video as I've probably added more detail here!!! Errr....what was I commenting about on this particular video again?? Oh well.....
